SASTRA, CSE

Reviewed on Dec 6, 2015

Entrance Preview

AIEEE, Rank 19k CSE because of my love for maths. Admission process is straight forward. Apply for college on the website or through an offline process, by giving your AIEEE or 12th exam scores. Counselling will be done for the top ranks/scores in various rounds on campus.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Course curriculum has a mixture of core subjects and a few unnnecessary subjects. A very good spread on the science of computers. Basics of most important programming languages are taught except Python.

Internships Opportunities

Sastra has a tie up with Microsoft and TCS. Apart from this they have a good relationship with PayPal, Amazon etc. Internships at these companies are a part of their placement offers. Stipend ranges from 9k-50k per month depending on the offer. I do not have a good idea about the stipend for the research students.

Fee Structure And Facilities

One of the least expensive in top South indian colleges. Totally feasible. 40k per sem. part from that, there are sport maintenance, hostel, exam fees. And also some unnecessary breakages at times. But not at all expensive.

Fees and Financial Aid

Loan can be availed from any bank and can be renewed depending on academics. Hostel scholarship is given depending on attendance and discipline. Scholarship rewards are given for semester fees for top 10 percentile of the college.

Campus Life

4.5

Gender ratio depends on the department. CSE has a 50-50 ratio, bio groups have 3 boys to 7 girls ratio, Mech has 1 girl to 40 boys ratio. So it is not a consistent figure. Workshops keep happening all the time in some department or the other, College gives extreme steps to restore students safety.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

And around 10-20k for hostel for a whole year. Around 3k per month for the mess. Decent food, not the best (just like any other hostel in other colleges). Quality of the food is not an issue. Only vegetarian and predominantly south indian food.

External Expense: Rs. 4000 - Rs. 7000

Exam Structure

Toughest end semester exams when I've made comparisions with my friends. Internal marks weigh a half of the grade and end sem exams, the other half. Tough to get more than 8 consistently.

Faculty

3.5

Mixture of a lot of amazing faculty and a bunch of few fools. CSE has the best and the coolest HOD on campus (Mr. P. Swaminathan if you want to know more about him). Very good labs and free to use own laptops in the labs.

Overall Good Experience at EEC

Likes

good infrastructure, clean campus and well equipped classrooms and labs.
Faculty members are supportive and explain concepts clearly with practical examples.
Good placement opportunities, career guidance and opportunities to participate in activities.

Dislikes

The workload can be huge sometimes, especially during examinations and project submissions.
some subjects could include more practical and industry-oriented learning
More campus activities and student interactions opportunities would improve campus life.

Placement Experience:

Students can join job drives from the 7th term. Many firms visit the campus for jobs and offer roles in tech and other fields. The pay varies by firm and role. EEC has a good job rate and gives help for job prep. After my degree, I plan to work in the tech field and grow my skills.

This is the best college overall

Likes

The curriculum provided is really nice and understandable.
It is relevant and is effective as well.
The boy girl ratio is on the other hand a little less as in 45:15.

Dislikes

The way some facilities behave with students is really bad especially in our branch.
Some facilities are too rude and they often don’t want to listen to students point of view

Placement Experience:

Students are open to campus placements from 2nd year onwards. There are many companies who visit such as Delloite, Accenture, Cognizant, TCS, Amazon, NatWest, Nokia, etc. Highest package offered is 42 lpa and lowest is maybe 2-4lpa. Around 90% of students get placed here. My plans is to get a job through campus recruitment. Currently I got an internship through campus recruitment in Cognizant so the recruitment is quite nice here.

Placement Training and Career development at CIT

Likes

In my college , I experienced diversed equality and gained more knowledge by training staffs and assessments

Placement Experience:

One thing I really need to appreciate at CIT is its placement training program. The placement team conducts regular sessions on 1. aptitude 2. coding 3. communication skills 4. group discussions and 5. interview preparation which helped me feel more confident during placements. The trainers were friendly and always encouraged us to improve our skills step by step. They provide continuous guidance and feedback throughout the training process. Mock interviews and one to one assessments helped me to understand my strength and weak areas and I work on improvements . These sessions not only improved my technical and communication skills but also boosted my confidence . The placement training team played an important role in preparing me for career opportunities and industry expectation
